What are PDO Thread Lifts?
At Renuvia Medical Center, Dr. Arthur Schlyer and his skilled aesthetic team perform innovative polydioxanone (PDO) treatments as a minimally invasive alternative to a traditional facelift, neck lift, or body lift. With the ability to address areas of mild to moderate aging, a thread lift procedure with PDO threads can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and even cellulite on the face, neck, and body. Using surgical-grade PDO threads, a thread lift is performed by inserting the threads into the desired area and carefully tugging them in the necessary position to allow for a lifted outcome. The threads then help to increase the production of collagen and elastin, as well as draw hyaluronic acid to the area for naturally strengthened, more youthful skin. The threads are then dissolved by the body, requiring no second appointment for removal. If you are desiring to diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without the need for surgery, you may be an ideal candidate for a thread lift procedure within our New Port Richey, FL facility. Contact our practice to schedule your initial consultation.

What Can I Expect During a Thread Lift?
During your initial consultation, our aesthetic team will discuss your desired treatment outcome in order to curate a personalized procedure plan that best fits your needs. Before the start of your treatment, a local anesthetic may be administered to allow for a more comfortable procedure. Then, the treatment areas will be carefully marked to identify where the threads will enter and exit the skin. In order to insert the threads, a very fine needle with the threads will be carefully pulled to create a lifted result. After your thread lift treatment, you could start to notice some results right away, but optimal results may take around 2 – 3 months to appear. Complete recovery from your thread lift procedure can take around a couple of days to make sure any soreness or redness has diminished. Results can typically last for a year or more, and touch-up procedures can be performed to help maintain your results.
